Hi guys I've been browsing the code and at many places I found the following odd sequence: char * string=malloc(somesize); ? bzero(string,strlen(string)); free(string); I really don't see why you would zero a string and free the memory immediately afterwards? Any idea why this is done? Thanks! Met vriendelijke groet Best regards Bien ? vous Miguel SANDERS ArcelorMittal Gent UNIX
